Nutella Secretly Changed Their Recipe, Sparking A #NutellaGate Revolt

Share

There are few spreads that have a fan following like Nutella. The chocolate and Hazelnut spread was launched after World War II and has maintained a crowd of loyal followers over the decades. But now, Nutella might have frayed its relationship with fans.

The company confirmed on Twitter Wednesday that they made some changes to the classic recipe.

Hi @spunky3825 our recipe underwent a fine-tuning and continues to deliver the Nutella fans know and love with high quality ingredients.

The new Nutella has an increased amount of sugar (up to 56.3 percent from 55.9 percent) and powdered skim milk (now 8.7 percent from 7.5 percent). The new jars also are a lighter color. And that loyal fanbase has been betrayed.
